I have an 11-year-old dragon who has not been eating his fruit/veg for the past few weeks. He is still enthusiastically eating his wax worms and horn worms when offered, but he is leaving his salads untouched, even his raspberries which he usually gobbles up immediately. I have tried offering...

I know this may not be the appropriate forum, but I didn't know where else to turn. I have relied on these forums for years for info on caring for my beardies. I have a pair of fire skinks. Have had them since September. Tonight my SO spotted a baby in the terrarium! I had no idea what to do. A...

We let Bert out of his viv often and give him free reign of our condo. We have a little basking area set up for him. We have fenced off the top of the stairs so he can't fall and hurt himself. However, sometimes he hides and we have a hard time tracking him down when it's time to go back in the...

Okay, so Bert is the best. He is usually super chill, fine with being handled and petted and cuddled. We let him out of his terrarium any time when we are home before lights out. We even let him sleep outside of his terrarium on weekends. He has little set-up on the floor with an MVB to provide...

We try to let Bert out of his viv whenever we are home during the day, now that we have a nice set-up for him on the floor. He has a basking spot, a mercury vapor bulb, and a guinea pig fence to keep him from falling to his death. However, he spends an inordinate amount of time lying on our...

I am stuck at work and my SO just reported that our beardie, Bert, fell from the ledge around our stairwell while he was out exploring. He is estimating Bert fell 4-6 feet, but he is a terrible judge of distance, so I am not sure if that is accurate. He says Bert is behaving and moving normally...

My significant other is now working from home and he likes to have Bert, my bearded dragon, out of the viv some of the time. I worry about him being out TOO much and not getting enough heat. I have noticed that when he is down on the floor he will sometimes find pools of sunlight to sit in. I'd...

I have kept beardies for 7 years and have had a yellow niger uromastyx for 2 years and now I am thinking about getting a fire skink. One of the things I loved about my uro is that her set up is pretty much identical to my beardies' with just a slightly brighter UVA bulb (for slightly higher...

Okay, I have two male bearded dragons in separate enclosures. One is 9 months old and one is 2 months old. Their vivs are one on top of the other (pic below), so they cannot see each other. I have web cams set up so I can watch both of them at work. ALL DAY today the older one has been black...

Poor Bert never got his own thread before, so I decided to start one! You can always check out Bert's live web stream here: http://www.justin.tv/thwack328 Video of Bert eating 113 crickets a couple days after I got him: http://www.justin.tv/thwack328/b/326480402 First Day (seven months old...

I had been posting pics of my man, Stanley in the Introductions forum, but I wanted a more permanent place to post them moving forward, since he'll eventually be beyone the "Introduction" stage. So here are all the pics I've posted so far and I will use this thread moving forward. And don't...

I'm a little concerned about my new baby, Stanley. He's going on 9 weeks old (hatched July 1) and he just hasn't been growing at the rate I'd expect for such a young beardie. Last week he weighed in at 15 grams and this week he was only about 16.5 (scale fluctuated between 16 and 17). Meanwhile...

A lot of you are familiar with the webcam we've had set up for Bert. We finally got one streaming for Stanley as well, but the image quality is terrible. It's just a cheap cam than I borrowed from work, but I'm hoping to pick up a much better camera I found on Craigslist later tonight, so...

Yesterday I got my newest little beardie. For people who don't know my story, I originally got a bearded dragon about two and a half years ago. His name was Clyde and I LOVED him, but he passed away on July 18th. After bawling my eyes out for three days straight, I decided to get a new beardie...

I got new (to me) beardie on Tuesday. He's 7 months old and came to me directly from the breeder. The first day I had him, he ate quite a bit, but hasn't eaten a ton since then. He also still has his stress marks and seems to be terribly afraid of me. I only handle him for feedings and baths...

Clyde was my first bearded dragon and his life was unfortunately much too short. He passed away on July 18th, 2012. He only lived to be about two and a half years old, but in that time, I loved him with my whole heart. I took his death incredibly hard. Much harder than I though I would, since I...

I got a new beardie on Tuesday. He's 7 months old and in great health. I have a piece of driftwood in his viv (if you click the link for the live web cam in my sig, you can see it in the foreground, leaning up against his half log). I've observed him BITING this piece of driftwood several times...

Right now I have a 24" Reptisun 10.0 and a 75 watt basking light in Bert's viv. We have a webcam set up so we (and everyone else) can watch him live while we're at work and such. Unfortunately, the lighting isn't great for streaming video and I was wondering if it is safe/advisable to put...

Okay, I have had Clyde for almost 3 months now. Every day I have fed him crickets in the morning, about an hour and a half after lights on, in a separate feeding bin. Then I would give him fresh salad at lunch time and just leave it in his viv until the next day (add water to it to keep it...

I had entertained the idea of a webcam to keep an eye on Clyde while I was at work, but pretty much dropped the idea a while back. But last night, out of the blue, my fiance decided to set up a webcam using his old video camera, so here it is! http://www.ustream.tv/channel/beardie-clyde
